Backing up your drive is a necessity if you have a media partition with all your audio downloads as you won’t be able to get them again, without paying. To back up this partition, you’ll need drive backup software and the two best tools are Acronis True Image 2009 and Paragon Drive Backup 9. We recommend both. With the latest Acronis True Image 2009, you can also backup individual files, if you only need to backup key office documents. There are loads of other tools, too, such as being able to test software in a safe ’sandbox’ environment.

Acronis have given us a 20%-off discount coupon so you can either buy Acronis True Image 2009 or upgrade to the latest version and save a significant price from the RRP. Simply follow the instructions on our Acronis True Image 2009 page.

Only yesterday we were busy telling you that Paragon had released Partition Manager 9 Express, which was a basic version of their partitioning software that enabled you to create, delete or resize a partition. It has all the basic tools required to manage your partitioning tasks. It’s completely free for personal-use, too.

With the latest Computeractive magazine, issue 280, on-sale right now, we’re giving you the full commercial version of Paragon Partition Manager 9 SE, which is based on the Personal edition and worth £21. The Personal edition will enable you to do more than just basic partitioning found in the Express edition. You can merge two existing partitions and make a backup of a partition, as well as cloning a partition or drive, so you can quickly move data to a new PC or larger drive.
